Dixie Carter addresses talent, television announcement expected, popular network destination theory

TNA president Dixie Carter addressed the locker room regarding the company's television situation at one point during the multi-day television tapings in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The wrestlers were told that she believes they will have a television home on January 7 and expressed happiness with Impact airing on Wednesday nights.

Multiple TNA sources believe a new television deal could be announced as early as this week, though one source believes it could be closer to Bound For Glory time in October before anything is finalized. The most popular network name floating around the TNA locker room was WGN America.

The feeling of some within the company is that Dixie may have dropped a hint at negotiations with WGN back on September 10. "Nothing like showers and high winds to impact traffic and my hair in the Windy City this am," she wrote on her Twitter page. While there's no telling what she was doing in Chicago that day, the locker room speculation stems from the fact that WGN America is owned by Tribune Media Company, which is based in Chicago. The Velocity network has also been rumored, and Spike TV has publicly claimed to be in negotiations with TNA.
